Event Rules

This is a relatively short event, just like the XIV event if you still remember. Complete them and unlock Bonus Battles!

Reward Highlights

Ramza & Agrias

and their Memory Crystals

and their Memory Crystal II as well!

Bracer
(20 ATK)

Saint Cross

【Ultimate】Boss

Three Archaeodaemons accompany Belias (Ultimate) into battle!

The Archaeodaemons will be hitting with the powerful magic attacks Unholy Darkness, Gigaflare, and Karma, so deal with them first.

Belias inflicts Silence, Petrify, and Confuse, but worse, he uses the earth magic attack Titan to hit the entire party, Lich to deal damage based on a character’s max HP, and the powerful magic attack Cyclops, so keep an eye on your party’s health!

Attack: Deal physical damage to one target.Cure: Restore a small amount of HP to one target.Regen: Grant Regen to one target.Wall: Grant Shell and Protect to one target.

► Time Mage

Attack: Deal physical damage to one target.Haste: Grant Haste to one target.Slow: Slow one target.Slowga: Slow all targets.Stop: Stop one target.

Strategy

Wiegraf is accompanied by Knight and White Mage initially. When the Knight and White Mage dies, the other two immediately joins the fight.

Wiegraf randomly switches position between front and back row. When he is in the back row, melee attacks won’t connect.

The battle ends when Wiegraf is defeated.

I suggest bringing mitigation against magic attacks (and physical attacks as well would be good) as the Black Mage now casts Firaga instead of the usual Fire. Other than that, focus on taking down the adds (AoE is best). Treat this fight like Gaffgarion.

Be careful when Wiegraf is in the back row as Lighting Stab hurts a lot. Power Breaking him would be nice.

Total medals = 15, meaning you can only afford to lose 2 medals to get Mastery.

Strategy

Below a certain HP threshold Belias enters its Weak state.

Start by putting up all your mitigation, I recommend Shellga + SG/SS2. Magic Breakdown is great as well (use it on Belias) What you want to do next is to Poison Belias. Poison deals about 3.2k per tick, which is huge! Slowing him is also a huge plus.

Focus down the adds ASAP (don’t forget to exploit holy weakness). They can be a nuisance if left unattended.

Once the boss is the last one standing, he should be harmless as long as you keep your mitigation + Magic Breakdown up.
